TPConnects Technologies has announced a significant expansion of its Iris platform, integrating content from over 60 airlines, including new additions such as easyJet, Wizz Air, Transavia, Volotea, Cathay Pacific, Turkish Airlines, ITA Airways, and Riyadh Air. This development allows travel sellers to access a unified platform combining New Distribution Capability (NDC), low-cost carriers (LCC), and Global Distribution System (GDS) content.

The Iris platform aims to simplify the complex landscape of airline distribution by providing a consistent workflow for travel sellers. Stephanos Kykkotis, Director of Product at TPConnects, stated, “Travel sellers don’t need more systems; they need a unified workflow that keeps pace with modern airline retailing.” This integration is designed to enhance operational efficiency, streamline processes, and offer greater control over commercial strategies.

Iris supports travel sellers by enabling broader airline access and a more consistent workflow for shopping and booking. It also offers flexibility and scalability as airline retailing models evolve. The platform is particularly beneficial for travel management companies (TMCs), online travel agencies (OTAs), and consolidators looking to modernise their operations.

The enhanced airline content is available to Iris customers, promising improved operational efficiency and revenue growth through features such as a configurable pricing engine and improved commission management. The platform also supports end-to-end servicing, including exchanges, refunds, and managing additional services.

TPConnects continues to position itself as a leader in travel retailing innovation, leveraging IATA NDC standardisation to meet the growing demand for modern airline distribution solutions.
